Praise for this book
"Literature-loving, farmer-appreciating foodies are bound to love the thoughtful gift that is a pocket-size, book-length poem by none other than famed Kentucky farmer, writer, and farmers' rights champion Wendell Berry . . . Counterpoint Press's new collector's edition ($19) is a beautiful reproduction, complete with original drawings by Carolyn Whitesel." --Katie O'Reilly, Sierra
"Readers of Wendell Berry, the Kentucky farmer and poet, will love to give or receive this collector's edition reproduction of one of his book-length poems." --Garden & Gun
"The newly released book The Farm by Wendell Berry is a worthwhile purchase simply for its beauty. A trade reprint of the hard-to-find letterpress edition by Kentucky's Larkspur Press, this new book retains the elegance of the original . . . It seems at the very heart of this work, Berry is describing a way of being, one rooted in the love of and care for a particular place." --Englewood Review of Books
